Church of the Nativity of the Most Holy Mother of God in Sestroretsk

The Church of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos in Sestroretsk was built according to the design of the author team of the "Petersburg Architectural Partnership" under the leadership of architect Alexander Evgenievich Schroeter, with the participation of Anton Golovin and Georgy Uralov. The stone building with white plaster is executed in the traditions of Northern Art Nouveau and is decorated on the outside with three-dimensional mosaic icons. Among the revered shrines of the church are a particle of the Life-Giving Cross of the Lord and a copy of the miraculous Kikkiskaya Icon of the Mother of God "the Merciful". The first service took place on September 21, 2005, and a reliquary with the relics of saints is also kept in the building.
